  1.1 Overview over this manual
6
  
7
  Chapter  1 is concerned with the technical details of installing and running
8
  this  package.  The  following  chapter 2 explains how to use SCO to compute
9
  simplicial  (co-)homology  of  orbifolds.  For  the theoretical parts please
10
  refer  to  my  diploma thesis and the corresponding paper (work in progress;
11
  [Gör08a]).  After  this  chapter you will find some simple examples on using
12
  SCO  with  (finite) groups, manifolds, or some easy orbifolds. Also included
13
  in  this  manual  is  a  documented  list  of the most important methods and
14
  functions  you will need to work with SCO's data types OrbifoldTriangulation
15
  and SimplicialSet and to create the matrices needed for computations. Anyone
16
  interested   in  source  code  should  just  check  out  the  files  in  the
17
  gap/pkg/SCO/gap/ folder (--> Appendix A).

  1.2 Installation of the SCO Package
21
  
22
  To  install  this package just extract the package's archive file to the GAP
23
  pkg/  directory.  By  default the SCO package is not automatically loaded by
24
  GAP when it is installed. You must load the package with LoadPackage("SCO");
25
  before its functions become available. Please, send me an e-mail if you have
26
  any questions, remarks, suggestions, etc. concerning SCO. Also, I would like
27
  to hear about applications of this package.
